at least you've got quite a cushion to deal with.

I might actually swing a trade of Julio/Ellington for Hillman/Foster with the guy that's 1-6 I think that'd be a much more sensible trade. If Ball comes back in week 10-11 I'll be able to deal with it, and additionally I can use Hillman as Forte's BYE cover. Id stick with green and Benjamin in the meanwhile at WR. Week 12 = Switch out possibly sharing carrying Hillman with Gordon. And... This will all collapse somehow

If he doesn't accept, no harm done that way either.

Easy to say it's a bad decision after the fact.

I think the ridicule is more a result of the hardline "if you have Graham you start him no matter what, I don't care who your backup is" mentality when you could have other good options at TE.

I guess it does depend on your options. IMO, there aren't many I would've started ahead of him. I'm not a JG owner so it's not something I had to worry about.

I was operating under the assumption that if you owned Jimmy Graham, then you would only have a bye week replacement quality tight end.

If you have, then no need to own Gronk, Julius, Olsen, or Gates.

But Jordan Reed, Owen Daniels, jace Amaro, Heath miller, Larry Donnell, etc. frick that noise.

You can't win with the fantasy arm chair QBs. Dudes offer no input all week but are always here Monday throwing the shite back in the people's face who try and give advice

Hey Gyno,

Is Foster and Hillman (just needed until week 11 which is when Ball should be coming back; assuming Gordon is awesome jawsome) for Ellington and Julio better?

I'm not worried about julio man. I'd still have him as the #1 player in that deal. Ellington #2, Foster #3, Hillman #4

I wouldn't but you seem hell bent on trading him so just trade the dude already

Ok. No more Julio trade talk from me. Thanks for the advice.

I won't crucify you if you're wrong either, promise haha.

You are a cult hero on here, but then people love to shite on your "mistakes".

I at least like the fact that gtothemoney is willing to try to defend his arguments.

No - because I didn't take your dumbass advice, and started Reed over him.

Honestly, kudos to you for admitting to your mistakes. Take a man to own up to making such a bold statement, and starting its own thread about the advice.

But I am sure you are 7-0 in every league and have won 100% of your championships


Not even close...5-2 & 4-3. That's why I don't start silly arse threads saying you need to start a person, when that person (stud or not) is coming back two weeks earlier than expected from an injury.

Don't be mad at me because you give shitty advice.
